The
Confederate Battle Flag is also known as the Flag of the Army
of Northern Virginia and the Southern Cross. Designed by William
Porcher Miles and first put into service by General Beauregard
as a remedy to confusion on the field of battle between the Union
flag and the Stars & Bars, the Battle Flag served from November
1861 until the end of the war. The original flags were made in
three sizes with somewhat irregular dimensions that were standardized
to 30" square (excluding border) for Cavalry, 36" square
for Artillery and 48" square for the Infantry.
These sewn cotton Confederate
Battle flags are 100% U.S. made using only domestic cotton fabric.
Hand-sewn by experienced craftsmen, our battle flags are perfect
for reenactments or a striking decorative touch.
